Chapter 709: Energetic

Beijing, a foreign-related hotel.

Li Yan's team stayed here, which was very low-key, but in fact, it was not high-profile. He is well-known in Taiwan, but little known in the mainland.

The preparation period for "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is very long, and this time it is mainly to choose the scene.

The deserts of Xinjiang, the glaciers of the Tianshan Mountains, the Cangyan Mountains of Shijiazhuang, the Hongcun and Nanping of Anhui, and the sea of bamboo. There are three places in Zhuhai:

Anji, Mukeng, Shunan.

Anyway, the three places all say that they are authentic, and they may have all been filmed and cut together in the later stage.

The selection of the scenery went smoothly, and the funds were also happy. Sunshine Pictures first hit $3 million, and the mainland also has the support of Tianxia Film and Television, and it is said that Hollywood has also found a film company, called Caictus.

Li Yu should have been happy, but he stood in front of the window, frowning.

"I've inquired, Caictus is a new rising company in Hollywood, and recently there was a big hit in the film "American Pie", which was released by itself, and it has some strength. ”

The speaker's name is Xu Ligong, a senior Taiwanese filmmaker who has supported many young directors.

He looked at the other party's expression and persuaded: "If you want to open up, there are so many good actors, you can find them again!"

"Although there are many good actors, there are few who have an impression in Hollywood. Li Lian refused, I can't find Cheng Long to do it, that's too disobedient......"

Li Yan shook his head and sighed: "I originally wanted to make a martial arts film that Westerners can understand, but who knew that I fell into a trap first." ”

He has great ambitions for the film, and since he wants to open up the Western market, he must at least find an international superstar. Who can be called international?

The three people who are in Hollywood, Cheng Long, Li Lianlian, and Zhou Yanfa!

Xu Ligong also thought about it and said: "If you find Zhou Runfa, you can save a little salary, but he didn't start well in Hollywood." But you've got to change the script again. ”

"Naturally, Zhou Yanfa can't play like Li Lianlian, and he can't act like that, and he needs to have more literary dramas. ”

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was originally the "yin and yang" of Yu Jiaolong and Yu Xiulian, and Li Mubai was responsible for fighting.

But instead of Zhou Runfa to act, Li Yu changed his thinking, Li Mubai and Yu Xiulian had more emotional scenes, and there was an emotional dark line with Yu Jiaolong.

This line is hidden deeply, and many people don't realize it.

To put it simply, Yujiaolong was born a poisonous dragon, and she longed to see herself, all beings, and heaven and earth.

She said to the blue-eyed fox: "I have been practicing with you since I was ten years old, and you gave me a dream of rivers and lakes, but one day I found out that I could defeat you, and you don't know how scared I am in my heart."

I can't see the edge of heaven and earth, I don't know where to go, and who can I follow?"

The blue-eyed fox is the first pass, she rushes over and begins to be confused, and then meets the wilder Luo Xiaohu.

Luo Xiaohu is the new "edge of heaven and earth", but when she ascended again, she found that Luo Xiaohu was also at her feet. At this time, she encountered the ceiling of force and realm in the film, a generation of grandmaster Li Mubai.

And Li Mubai was aroused, just like the scene of the Zhuhai fight, is there more fighting, or is it a little more?

Both of them are complicated, and the last death is free......

The so-called "martial arts that Westerners can understand" is because "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" integrates the emotional core of Eastern culture and Western style.

But said that Li Yi was sad here, Xu Ligong suddenly remembered something, and said: "By the way, director Zhang Yi returned from Venice with honors, I heard that there is going to be a celebration banquet, should we go?"

"Mr. Xu is not here?"

"It should be there. ”

"Then let's go and have a good talk. ”

............

In September, "No One is Missing" was born a year ahead of schedule and still won the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival.

When he returned to China, Xu Fei happened to come back and immediately arranged for the release. This kind of film relies on chartering, and there is no way to hold a premiere, but the celebration banquet is OK.

gathered in a small area, but as a result, the news leaked, and more and more people came. When Li Yu arrived, no one paid attention, and only chatted with Zhang Guoshi.

They have known each other for a long time, in Berlin in 93, Lao Mouzi served as a judge.

Xie Fei's "Fragrant Soul Girl" and Li Yu's "The Wedding Banquet" are both very popular, and the votes are stalemate. He proposed to make the two movies tied for the Golden Bear, which was the beginning of their relationship.

"Mr. Xu!"

"Hey, why are you in the capital?"

"I chose the scene for the new film, and I heard that Director Zhang celebrated his success, so I came to congratulate him. ”

"If you have a heart, let's sit over there. ”

Xu Fei found a clean place and said with a smile: "This piece is favored by Brother Song, I will run errands with the back of my ass, how are the preparations?"

"Boss Song is a cheerful person, the funds have already arrived, and American film companies have also been brought in. ”

"That's it, Brother Song does what he says, I am a model in life!"

Sizzle!

Lao Song, who is far away in Hong Kong, is a spirit, and another spirit...... Continue to move with Achu.

"It's just that the casting is a little difficult, and I first contacted Li Lianlian, saying that my wife is pregnant and giving birth, and it is inconvenient to work. The Shu Qi I was looking for again was ambiguous and vague. ”

"What do you mean by vagueness?"

"I didn't promise or refuse, I just talked about consideration. ”

"When she came into contact with Gong Li again, she felt that she wanted to fight martial arts, and she didn't want to act. ”

Li Yu made a bitter face and said: "Of the three candidates, none of them succeeded. I currently want to talk to Zhou Yanfa, Yu Xiulian tried Michelle Yeoh, Yu Jiaolong really can't help it. Does Mr. Xu have any recommendations?"

"Gong Li, I'll say, don't look for others first. Jade Jiaolong......"

He glanced at Zhang Guoshi, and the two thought of a piece, "Director Zhang's new film has a heroine, I think it's pretty good." ”

"Would you like to see you?"

"Yes, I'll arrange it as soon as possible. ”

......

Li Yu left after talking, leaving a group of people to eat and drink.

Mr. Xu just made a fortune in Hollywood, and when he came back, he was like no one else, carrying a bottle of wine and shaking it from table to table. Dangling to Ge You's table, he sat down and looked at the countertop: "Old Jiang didn't come?"

"He's busy with his feet not touching the ground, how can he have kung fu. Ge You said.

"Teacher Jiang Wen is devoted to art, and there are people who hold and give money, which is not comparable to us. Of course, under the glory of Boss Xu, we are also growing up happily. Feng said.

"How poor are you, what's wrong with your "A Sigh"?"

"I'm doing the late stage, and everything is going well. ”

"Okay, the release plan for November remains unchanged. ”

Feng Pants nodded spontaneously, and couldn't help but say at the end: "Teacher Xu, we have no face to be hit by the Titanic this year, and people are still hanging on the screen, and they are almost 200 million."

How many people are looking forward to your New Year's card coming back out of the rivers and lakes, the abbot's overall situation!"

"I've been idle this year. Ge You immediately picked up.

"Yo, I didn't have a Chinese New Year film, so I'm not sure?"

"No, no...... Hey, I don't want to meet with the audience...... What's wrong with this?"

"That's what I thought......"

Xu Fei took a sip of wine and said, "This style has been filmed for four years, and the audience is tired of it." Empty first, change the taste.

Next year, I plan to be younger, and take advantage of the momentum of Pan Yueming and Zhou Xun to make a youthful New Year film. Lao Feng, how about this task to you?"

"Yes, yes!"

Feng Pants is excited, the only criterion for the most important drama in the world is to look at Boss Xu's attitude.

He ordered it himself, and it must be the main event.

"There is also a production of 10 million yuan, Uncle Ge has your share. ”

"Hey, hey!"

Ge Yu scratched his head.

"There is also a lower-cost one, Uncle Ge, you should try it first, this drama is exciting, I can change people if it doesn't work!"

Yo!

The two of them were stunned for a moment, and they could make Mr. Xu say what was exciting, which was not ordinary.
